A roller security grille is a curtain of linked aluminium or steel tubes that coils into a box above the opening. Lowered, it gives an open-mesh barrier you can see through; raised, it leaves the full width clear with nothing parked at the sides.

Fitting in Newton Aycliffe and nearby

Newton Aycliffe is about 11 miles from Durham, the main centre for Durham. We can survey and fit across the DL5 district and in nearby places such as Bishop Auckland and Darlington.

County Durham's stock is dominated by brick terraces in former colliery towns, alongside the listed historic core of Durham city and Teesside's commercial centres.

Where roller security grilles are most often used:

Wide internal openings and lobbies
Counters and kiosks
Car park and stairwell openings
Shopping centre and arcade units

What to think about first

Head space

The coil box needs height above the opening. If there is no room inside, a retractable grille is usually a better fit.

Inside or outside

Inside a shopping centre or behind glazing the grille is protected. External roller grilles normally need planning permission.

Grilles across exits in business premises

In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.

Grilles inside the glass

A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission, because it does not materially change how the building looks from outside. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.

Roller security grilles in Newton Aycliffe: questions

Can you survey in Newton Aycliffe and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Newton Aycliffe, Bishop Auckland, Darlington and elsewhere in Durham are booked around installer availability.

Is a roller grille the same as a roller shutter?

No. A shutter uses solid or perforated slats; a grille uses an open mesh of tubes and links, so you can see through it and air can pass.

Can a roller grille be fitted inside a shop window?

Yes, where there is enough clear height above the window for the coil and guides. It is a neat option because nothing is left at the sides.

Do electric roller grilles need servicing?

Yes. Powered grilles should be inspected and maintained regularly, including the motor, safety devices and manual override, so they stay safe to use.
